its boring as fuck

>>387987868
It's almost like different people like different games.

>>387987006
The combat is better than persona but everything else, not so much

You don't even have to worry about weapons (outside of the best ones that you need the ores for). The characters auto-upgrade their equipment through the story

Older Trails games are bootleg Grandias

They copied the bonding system and it isn't even working well for trails,
the events are boring cliches, the personalities are forgettable

>>387993592
>the events are boring cliches, the personalities are forgettable
Just like Persona, then.

>>387987635
This seems like such a silly decision

Why the hell do you buy weapons from a school cafeteria? Couldn't that have just put a shop in Trista or had Micht sell them or something?

Military school. Also the building isn't a cafeteria, it's the school's Student Union building.

>>387987006
Shitty bonding system.
Towa A BEST

>>387993740

Ya done fucked up, Falcom.

>>387993962
Apparently early scripts of the game actually had Thors be much more stricter and militarized while Erebonia was meant to be much more like the Erebonia hyped up in Sky and Crossbell, but they changed it because they were afraid it wouldn't sell.

Luckily with CS3, nu-Thors looks like it's going to be an actual military school. and not a """"military"""" Japanese high school.

Should I play the other games in the series first?

>>387994602

Play the other games, but not just for this game.

Too bad Rean "McBurn" Schwarzer is teaching them.

Cold Steel was designed to be an entry-point to the series but it still builds off the world-building and stories from previous games.

opinions on the new tracks?

Turned the audio off by the 3rd chapter. held down the fast forward button and put Dr. Katz on in the background.

Wouldn't play it again. Or any others in the series.

Never heard of this game, bootleg why? Does it ripoff the social link system?

>>387996929
Yes

>>387996929
Anything with high schools and linking is a Persona ripoff

>>387996929
It's set in a military school. That's about it.

>>387997023
correct

>>387997023
Actually that does describe a rip-off. High school and social link are the main features of Persona. Otherwise you'd get SMT.

>>387993674
Grandia is so much better though
A shame what they did to 3, and 2 was so short

>>387997305
High school isn't even the main feature of Cold Steel, it's just the hub inbetween chapters whilst you're shipped out to other parts of the country for 80% of the game.

Persona didn't even invent high school settings or social links in JRPGs either.

Only weebs play this garbage, the series was exposed as shit when the huge drop off point between FC sales and SC on steam.

CS won't even get as many as FC sales

>>387997502
>Persona didn't even invent high school settings or social links in JRPGs either.

Try name any other game that did social links in a high school setting before persona. Don't make statements like that without naming the game.

>>387997735
>Try name any other game that did social links in a high school setting before persona
I never said other games did social links in a high school setting before Persona. I said that games have done social links and high school settings before Persona.

>>387997806
As if a high school setting in a jrpg media was a rare thing

>>387997806
High school? Maybe. Social links/Social Sim thats an integral part of the mechanice and narrative? Gimme some names anon.

>>387997884
When people pretend every JRPG with high schools is a Persona rip-off, it gives the impression that they think high schools are a rare thing.

>>387997914
>Social links/Social Sim thats an integral part of the mechanice and narrative?
Thousand Arms, Summon Night, Galaxy Fraulein Yuna

>>387998104
nah on chapter 3 rn. It gets worse?

>>387998434
yeah, chapter 6 is an excessively long slog with a bunch of dungeons in a row, all with mandated party members

I was going to say it gets better after that, because it does, but if you're getting bored this early maybe take a break and go at it again later or something

>>387998221
>When people pretend every JRPG with high schools is a Persona rip-off, it gives the impression that they think high schools are a rare thing.
Or those people are simply normalfags who never played anything other than FF/DQ/Tales/Persona.
